Lynne Richardson, Suffolk Park

Thanks for the continuing tradition of random quotations embedded without context in The Echo.

I’m referring, of course, to that of Vicktor Emil Frankl in the paper last week. Somewhere around I still have ‘Life begins at the end of your comfort zone’, or something to that effect, published years ago.

They strike a chord, sometimes at exactly the right time as this one was for me. I don’t drink… any more, so won’t be dropping off a couple of bottles of red anonymously. My gift is my time and gratitude.


Support The Echo

Keeping the community together and the community voice loud and clear is what The Echo is about. More than ever we need your help to keep this voice alive and thriving in the community.

Like all businesses we are struggling to keep food on the table of all our local and hard working journalists, artists, sales, delivery and drudges who keep the news coming out to you both in the newspaper and online. If you can spare a few dollars a week – or maybe more – we would appreciate all the support you are able to give to keep the voice of independent, local journalism alive.
